In a post-Guardians of the Galaxy world where Walkmans (the correct plural of Walkman) are now being sold on ebay for $800 (and $600 for the broken ones! seriously!) the little tape labels out there have received a little more attention. The fact Starlord’s choice of Walkman isn’t a very good example of a Sony Walkman at all (seriously Starlord, a TPS-L2? You were abducted in 1988, not 1979!) doesn’t matter. Suddenly, the corners of the internet where Tapeheads hide and scurry from the light, are the places to be. Questions like “hey, I am new to this forum, I have a woolworths cassette player from 1993, can someone tell me what an AA battery is?” are going to be myriad, but I say, the more people banging on about cassette culture the better.
